Tip: You can always get back to the main playback screen by repeatedly pressing the DSPLY/BACK button. Tip: To make sure your audio files are organized properly in the HDX it is important that your mp3 files contain proper ID3 tag information. Use your favorite mp3 organization software to enter in the correct file characteristics (artist, title, album, genre, track number and year) 10 Adding Content to the Hard Drive In addition to being a full featured CD player, the HDX also has a removable 80 gigabyte hard drive for storage and playback of thousands of audio files. ALWAYS USE THE POWER SWITCH ON THE HDX TO TURN THE UNIT OFF!Never turn off the HDX by unplugging it or by using an external power switch (such as on a power strip). If power is interrupted while it is performing a write operation to the hard disk, the hard disk's file system directory could become corrupted, making it unplayable. Using the HDX's power switch will allow it to power down gracefully so this does not happen. NEVER INSERT OR REMOVE THE HARD DISK WHILE THE UNIT IS ON!This could result in corrupted data on the drive or damage to the drive. Always power down the unit before inserting or removing the hard drive caddy. There are four ways to add songs to your hard drive: 1. Connect the unit to your computer via USB to use the high speed USB 2. 0 connection to transfer songs. Insert an audio CD or CDR and rip the files to the hard drive. If the CD is a store-bought, prerecorded audio CD, then there is a good chance it will be recognized by the onboard Gracenote® Music Recognition database, allowing the artist and song information to be loaded automatically. The music files will be compressed in the background allowing you to continue to use the unit normally. Insert a data CD with MP3 or WMA files and rip the files to the hard drive. Record using the LINE IN connectors on the underside of the unit. 3. 4. Music recognition technology and related data are provided by Gracenote.
